My buddy bought this movie on blu-ray on release and finally let me borrow it! I've been dying to see it, so I finally got to watch it yesterday.
The movie picks up after the second film and everything is happening while the third film is going on, from what I understand. Hopefully that makes sense to everyone.
Pre-thoughts:
I heard a lot of good news about the movie initially. I loved the first two and thought Tokyo Drift(3) was OK at best. So, when I found out they were bringing back the original crew from the first movie, I was pumped. Some have said it was the best out of the series!
Thoughts:
-I loved Vin Diesel and Paul Walker together in the first movie. I think they are both good actors and I love how they are on each side of the playing field(ie. cop vs wanted).
-A lot of action and explosions = greatness
-They had some REALLY neat cars in the movie
-Story wasn't as good in my opinion as the first movie. On par with the second movie.
-Not as much racing as I would have liked
Overall:
-It is probably my second favorite in the series. I think the cast alone gives it the edge over the second movie.
-I highly recommend anyone seeing this movie if they can. I'd watch the first and second before seeing this one, so you know the character relationships.

I've been dying to see this film, loved the first, second was OK, not seen the third. But as the original cast is back it should be a good watch.
I'll definitely get this as you've recommended it :-)
